Humpback Whale Discovery

 

 

 

Unique experiences in an idyllic setting

Join your local guide from Moorea, who will lead you

to hidden treasures beneath the crystal-clear waters.

 

 

Sail through stunning landscapes

and swim among colorful fish

during charming and scenic swims.

 

 

In a small group, you will set out to discover

the majestic humpback whales,

known as TOHORA in Tahitian.

 

 

Along the way, you may also spot

rays, sharks, and turtles,

and witness the occasional performances

by dolphins — and even swim with the whales.

IMPORTANT: Whale Watching & Swimming

Whale encounters are not guaranteed.

 Our team will make every effort to locate whales and allow in-water encounters where possible.

 However, the whales ultimately decide how close we can get.

 No refunds or credits will be given if swimming is not possible.

 

Swimming with Whales – Conditions:

 For experienced swimmers only, confident in open water with solid snorkeling skills

 Detailed safety briefing before each trip

 Water entry occurs about 100 meters from the whales

 Distance and difficulty may vary based on sea conditions and animal behavior

 If a participant fails to follow the guide’s instructions or cannot keep up with the group,

they will be brought back on board immediately

 

Open Sea Conditions:

 These tours take place in the open ocean.

If you are prone to seasickness, we strongly recommend taking precautions before departure.
